With his sentencing in New York now postponed indefinitely, it's safe to say the attempt to prosecute Donald Trump has come to an end. I've collected all my @NYMag stories on Trump's trials in one place. You can find the archive here andrewrice.net/trumptrials

When Trump returned to court after lunch, aide Boris Epshteyn handed CNN's Kaitlan Collins a stack of color photo printouts and said, "Can you give that to George when you see him?" She looked befuddled. Epshteyn added, "Conway.” Trump reportedly travels with a portable printer
What's on Trump's mind? Trump posted photos of George Conway at his 2016 Election Night party this afternoon on his Truth Social, apparently between breaks in the trial. "Mr. Kellyanne Conway celebrating my Victory in 2016!" he wrote.

I take it people are unhappy with the GOT finale but personally I thought its depiction of a drawn-out, consultant-driven hiring committee process that ends with a groundswell for an “out of the box” candidate who is manifestly unqualified, was pretty dead-on

Cop testifying in NYPD corruption case today names Ike Perlmutter, Mar-a-Lago member and friend/supporter of Donald Trump. Perlmutter has memorably played an unofficial role as "shadow ruler" of the VA, as detailed in this @ProPublica story propublica.org/article/ike-p…
Villanueva testifying that he got to go to Los Angeles premieres of Marvel movies in exchange for expediting gun permits for Marvel CEO Isaac Perlmutter. Says that Perlmutter's assistant, Marisol Garcia, arranged the deal.

2017: This ... is ... NOT ... NORMAL!!!!

David Rubenstein has well documented legislative interests before government. The president is pushing a major social spending bill that involves taxing the ultra-wealthy. And yet, Biden’s defenders are acting to this news as if it's insane to point out this out.

One thing I thought was notable about Todd Blanche's comments on CNN last night: he refused (despite being prodded hard) to say Judge Merchan was unfair. Very different message than the one his client wants to amplify.

My own read on Juror 2, whose sympathies were the matter of much baseless speculation, is that he’s a super consumer of news. Follows Trump. Follows @MuellerSheWrote. He was the defense’s worst nightmare. He probably still wonders what the deal was with Alfa Bank
Following an account that posts Trump’s statements from Truth Social ≠ citing Truth Social as your primary source of news. Minor distinction, wildly different implications about Juror no. 2’s political sympathies.
